The Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) welcomed the launch of the first phase of HKEX’s Integrated Fund Platform (IFP), starting with the Fund Repository, which offers investors centralized access to retail fund information. Future components, including a business platform and communications network, will streamline fund transactions between managers and distributors. SFC Executive Director Christina Choi emphasized that the platform will enhance transparency, support informed investment decisions, and boost retail participation in Hong Kong’s fund market. The SFC pledged continued collaboration with HKEX and industry stakeholders for the platform’s full implementation.
